A popular snack from Maharashtra. Actually its more than a mere snack. It is a combination of different vegetables which are cooked together into a thick gravy. Served with a soft bread called pav. It is undoubtedly the best street food in Mumbai. With a spicy curry and butter toasted pav, this is an absolute favourite of people in all age groups.

After it becomes translucent, add ginger-garlic paste. Mix and cook till the raw smell goes away.

Using a potato masher, mash all the vegetables. As soon as the bhaji or gravy starts to dry, add the water in which the vegetables were boiled. Then let it simmer for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat as soon as the bhaji thickens up.

Pavs are nicely toasted in butter and I have added a dollop of butter on top of the bhaji.
